resize linux partition?

[rpierre]

I've installed linux on my system but unfortunately when I created the partition for one of my mounts I used too much space. How can I shrink and realocate the partition space to another location that needs it more without loosing data ?

which distro are you using? some have built-in partition programs e.g. mandrake.

failing that, do a search in the forums here and

www.google.com/linux

search for something like 'linux partitioning' or 'changing partition size'. you could also add the name of your distro in your search.

JL forum search results for 'resize partition' (http://justlinux.com/forum/search.php?s=&action=showresults&searchid=686509&sortby=lastpost&sortorder=descending) of which you will find all sorts of suggestions.

Search first... ask second ;)
